I have to admit, the Huntsman candidacy for President never made much sense to me. When it began I thought: wait, this guy served in the Obama Administration and now wants to run against him? And I didn't really get any further than that. Maybe, though, it was simply Himalayan-sized political ambition. According to very credible sources, Huntsman has accepted a speaking slot at the Democrat convention in Charlotte next month.
So, first the guy stabs the GOP in the back to work for Obama. Then, he stabs Obama in the back to run against him. And now Huntsman's political circle-of-life is complete; once again, apparently, stabbing the GOP in the back to campaign for Obama.

One can only hope they are having trouble with all the defections getting actual democrats to fill the 3:30-5 PM doldrums in their speaker line up.
Makes me go hmmm. Could it be that the rumor that Huntsman’s father is the source of Reid’s allegation that Romney had not paid taxes for 10 years might be true?
Honestly, does a single person actually care what Jon Huntsman thinks? All they’re doing is wasting a speaking slot.
Isn’t John Huntsman still technically running for president under the “No Labels” banner?

Huntsman served under Ronald Reagan, Bush I and II, and Obama.
Calling Huntsman a RINO is an insult to RINOS..Huntsman is a Progressive Democrat, always has been
Huntsman is related to ROmney.(Think great grandfather with multiple wives in Mexico)His family’s business is entertwined with Baine. Maggie and Star found the information last winter.
There were some FReepers that actually wanted this pos gaylord maoist.

I never payed any really much attention to the No Labels group that Huntsman belongs to because I assumed they were your typical moderates but looking at their website now and it sounds like they want a dictatorship.
No labels 11 ways to make the presidency work
1.Regular News Conferences for the President
2.Fast-Track Legislative Authority for The President
3.Make The Parties Pay for Presidential Fundraising
4.A Line Item Veto With A Twist
5.Reduce the Number of Appointees Subject to Senate Confirmation
6.Identify a “Slate That Can’t Wait” of Critical Nominees For Expedited Confirmation
7.Up or Down Vote on Presidential Appointment
8.Question Time for The Presiden
9.Expanded Presidential Power to Reorganize
10.Different Opinions, But the Same Facts
11.Regular Meetings Between The President And Congressional Leadership
That deal fell through:
Charlie Christ redo. The problem with moderates is they are always ready o jump tothe other side. Boehner is made from the sae mold.
Why? Because they’re hoping to pull in some gay viewers?
Did the wealthy Huntsman pay his taxes? Unlike Rommney who gave away his inheritance from his father, Hunstman relied on his daddy to gain his wealth.

Well we all knew Huntsman was a worthless liberal puke during the primary. He has returned to the fold.
So would Monica.
